What are the common molding processes for silicone products?

Hits: 500 img

Silicone, as a common environmentally friendly raw material, is loved by consumers due to its numerous advantages. Its softness and safety and environmental performance are widely used in industrial sealing and medical devices. The most important thing is that its working temperature is between -40 to+240 degrees Celsius, which plastic products cannot compare with.

The use of silicone to wrap metal or plastic parts to form new properties further enhances the softness and hardness of the product. What are the molding processes for silicone products produced from silicone materials, such as silicone pot shovels wrapped in silicone, which are favored by consumers for their environmental performance?

1. Extrusion molding process
The extrusion molding process is like squeezing toothpaste, and the head of the silicone extrusion equipment is also the cross-sectional shape of the product, with a certain length. Under the action of force and temperature, the product that comes out of the machine has been vulcanized and formed. The products processed by this process are generally rectangular products, with various cross-sections such as rectangular strips and circular silicone tubes.

2. Glue dripping process
Silicone products can also be dripped out using the dropper process, but this process requires liquid silicone. Liquid silicone is loaded into a syringe, and the raw materials are dropped onto the mold using pneumatic and manual operation, then heated and vulcanized into shape. This process is a manual process that requires a lot of labor and is not high in production capacity. But there is an important characteristic, which is that the products produced by this process can drip many colors according to requirements, and the dropped silicone products are also very exquisite, with a unique concavity and convexity. And what we do more are various colored silicone bracelets, various colored patterned silicone phone cases, various exquisite cartoon silicone keychains and other small pendants.
